1 Sketching, Outlining and
Shading
We know that making an artwork includes talent and skills. Some people are
born artistic and creative skills and that is the reason why they became popular in
the different fields of art.

There are also many livelihoods where sketching, shading and outlining are
being used. Among are furniture -making, tailoring, dress making, and creating
construction projects and many others.

Learning the basic skills can help us improve our creativity and artistic
inclination. Let us learn to be more imaginative, creative, and have more patience to
practice. Practice is the basic in all that we do.

What’s In

I. Directions: Choose the appropriate word from the parenthesis. Write your
answer on a separate sheet of paper.

1. (Shellac, Paint, Filler) is a finishing material that fill up cracks and

grooves.

2. (Saleable, Enhancement, Production) is a process of developing the

product that will make it attractive to buyers.
3. (Glue, Shellac, Varnish) is a transparent material that comes from gum.
4. Beads and charms are (accessories, designs, colors) that will make
products more attractive and increases marketability.
5. A (transparent, colorful, durable) product can withstand any weather

 1. Draft – is a preliminary version of a piece of writing or drawing.

2. Three dimensional – appearing to have a length, width, and height.

3. Subject – any object that serve as a model in creating a piece.

4. Shadow effect – a dark image cast on a surface by the interception of light

rays by an opaque body.

5. Tone – a lightness or darkness of color.

What’s New

Elmer, Nicole, and Franz are Grade 6 pupils of La Carlota Elementary

School. They were the participants of their Division for the Regional “Technolympics”.

Before the day of their respective events, the three decided to have a walk
around the place and to familiarize themselves with their respective event area.

As they go to the venue, they were happy sharing their experiences. They
stop by bazaar set up by other divisions. They were amazed how other divisions put
up their booths with their learners’ outputs and their products.

Their attention was caught by several students who flock in one side of the
venue. They saw students from that booth, making drawing of different photo laid in
front of them. Some are about to start, some are in the middle of their sketching, and
others are about to finish.

Elmer asked one of the students, “Is it difficult to draw a photo?”

“No, because this my hobby, I love drawing all the time”, the student replied.

The three learners concluded that making illustrations would be easy, if we

love and enjoy our work, constant practice and learning the techniques in sketching,
outlining and shading.

 What is It

Products made from bamboo, wood, and metal are bare looking if there no
enhancement or artwork added to it. This is the reason why many small cottage
industry and handicraft makers in the country continue to create different products
out of bamboo, wood and metal. They tried innovating and even adding accessories
or to make it more saleable both locally and even in international markets.

In this lesson you will learn how sketching, outlining and shading can add
beauty, thus increases the marketability of bamboo, wood and metal products.

What is Sketching, Outlining and Shading?

Sketching: is a practice of using a rough outline or it is draft version of an object.

Sketching is a preparation or an idea of how something will look like.

Outlining: is the process of making an image on the outer parts of any shape or
object using lines. To draw the outer edge of an illustration, diagram
to emphasize the shape or image of the drawing. This step is also
known as “inking of drawing”. It is done when you go over the lines
used to produce a rough sketch with thick and dark ink to make it
more distinct.

Shading: is the darkening or coloring of an illustration, diagram, or outline.

Tracing and defining the outer edge or shape of the drawing, it is a
technique that makes line drawing pop off and stimulate a three-
dimensional look. It adds depth and contrast to your piece.

6
Steps in enhancing bamboo, wood, metal and other finished products through
Sketching, Outlining and Shading
Step 1: Prepare all materials and tools needed for your project. Prepare the tools
and materials such as pencil, eraser, assorted colored paint as touching materials,
pencil brush or artist brush, accessories, and finishing materials for topcoat.

Pencils – there are two types of pencils used in drawing,

 H pencil usually used for sketching, it is numbered with 2H, 4H, 6H

and 8H with 2H as the softest and 8H as the hardest.
 B pencil is used for shading, it is numbered 2B, 4B, 6B, and 8B.

Ready finished products made from bamboo, wood, or metal and the image or
subject you want to put in your products.

Step 2: Make a sketch of your subject on the surface of the product.

a. Hold your pencil nearly at the middle.

b. Choose a specific subject to draw.

Look for an image that you like; it maybe an object or person. Take time to study the
object before beginning to sketch. Use combination of primary or basic shapes like
square, circle or rectangles.

7
 c. Start to sketch lightly.

Start sketching with a very light hand using short and quick strokes. This will
allow you to test yourself of the different ways of drawing an object and will allow
you to erase mistakes easier.

d. Keep sketching or do gesture drawing.

It is continuous sketching until you achieve the forms, actions shape and poses,
connecting lines that show movement of your subject.

Step 3: Outline your sketched image or subject.

a. Ready with your touching materials for outlining.

b. Use fine tip pencil brush. Make an outline of your subject using light
colored paint.
c. Grip your pencil brush near the tip with your hand steady. Let your
arm guide you over the lines not by the movement of your wrist.
d. Make thick and bold lines for more detailed parts (outer lines) and
thin lines for less detailed parts (inner lines).
e. Use outline color that is the same with the final color of that
particular part.
f. Outline the subject or image color by color.

Note:
 To decrease the color tone of the paint, mixed it with white of
the same type until you reach the desired tone.
 To increase color tone or darkened the paint, add a very little
amount of black.

8
Step 4: Shade the outlined image or subject.

On this part, you will add texture to your work piece by shading. Shading may use
three different techniques: hatching, cross-hatching, stippling.

a. Hatching is a series of parallel lines that create shadows in drawing.

b. Cross-hatching is the use of two sets of lines. Second line is crossing over
the first line to create a darker effect of shadow.

c. Stippling involves by making shapes and images by using small dots.

9
 1. Determine the direction of light source. This is a very important factor in
creating a shadow effect and making your art piece more realistic.
2. Use color tones start with plain then add dark color starting from the
direction against the light.
3. Make use of tone and contrast. As a rule, object away from light source
need to be shaded.
4. Start with light shading to serve as a base. Make it darker going to the
direction of a part that is away from light.
5. To make your artwork become real or three-dimensional, add a drop
shadow. A drop shadow will determine the location of your object.
6. Observe the direction of the light, this will be also the direction of the
shadow casted by your object.

Step 5: Paint the inner part of the subject or image

a. Check if the outlines are dried, start painting the inner part of each
outline.
b. Apply on each part a specific light-colored paint. This will serve a
base.
c. The tone of each color should be a bit darker in your outline.

Note:
It will be easy to identify the color tone that you want to use if you will
have at least four separate containers that contains one-color with
different color tone. Example: dark green, green, light green, and
much lighter green.
